When you are gone, who will remember you?

Good autumn. Do you like donating to charity? Do you like candy corn? Would you like thirty pounds of candy corn? Then may I introduce you to Candy Corn Me! A Special Candy Corn Project by The Deadlands? The instructions are simple and the raffle is running through the end of the week. It's tzedakah and enough high-fructose corn syrup to send your teeth to Hades. Choose your food bank or charity and roll those bones.

This is adorable--I love the graphic--and a great idea. I will spread the word.

Thank you!

Jesus fuck, you dark bastard, can I give tzedakah to specifically be taken out of the running to receive or come near candy corn? Same goes for mellocreme pumpkins, which are just. Candy corn.

Not even a sticker for your child, huh?

(We could renew the binding around your house.)

(We'd need you anyway, not for sprinkling sacrificial candy corn but for peeling them off the ceiling fan.)

... there are people who want that much candy corn? Are they feeling quite well?

I mean overall this is a great idea, it's just that as Selkie said I'd rather pay the money to keep candy corn far, far away from me. Unless it's the homemade kind I make.

Until they eat all thirty pounds of it, I must assume so!

There's always suggestion number four of what to do with your winnings: "mail them to your enemy or enemies." (I personally, having a beef with my dentist at present, might choose suggestion number three.)

Unless it's the homemade kind I make.

I don't think I know your homemade candy corn recipe!

[selkie]

I am betting that, like the one I use, the most outlandish thing in it is the optional clear vanilla so your white tips don’t go tan-color.

Edit: ALWAYS get you a spouse with a decent knowledge of candy chemistry.

Oooh, I extend the candy exchange invitation to you too!

[rushthatspeaks]

Probably. The reason I found a home candy corn recipe in the first place was wanting to eat something I register as real food, i.e. the first ingredient is not carnauba wax.

[minoanmiss]

You make homemade candy corn?! Would you like to do a homemade candy exchange? Right now I have sliced quince and rainbow fudge on offer.

[rushthatspeaks]

... Ooh. Sliced quince and rainbow fudge are both things I like. Ping me using the DW message function or email at my username, all lower-case with no spaces or dashes, at gmail?

I WILL TAKE 30 POUNDS OF CANDY CORN! I WILL DISTRIBUTE IT TO MY NEAR AND DEAR ONES.... and then, with the leftover 28 pounds, yes, well... I will hold my own contests, or give it away to neighborhood kids (nothing suspicious about THAT, not at all), or ... well, just admire the look of All That Candy Corn.

[sovay]

or ... well, just admire the look of All That Candy Corn.

A valid life decision!

Ah well, I'm still not joining Twitter. But I have donated in the spirit of Halloween cheer and MASSIVE CANDY CORNOSITY!

Thank you!

(I'm not on Twitter, either.)

I am on twitter, I like Candy Corn, and I really like excuses to donate to charity. FINGERS CROSSED!
